I think most of us realize that Doug is not getting interviewed for a head or lead position by any other team at this point, or heading into this past season.
I wasn't against Christie. Have always been a fan,... but more not a fan of bringing in a new GM and doing the same thing that's been going on the whole time.....not allowing him to have the full power and decision making ability that every successful GM has.
The goal was to make the playoffs. They brought in a 45 million dollar player and still fell two games short, after getting off to a 7 game win streak with Christie. What was their record down the stretch after that win streak, not to mention the home record. There's plenty of excuses,... fit, injuries, etc etc. There will be more excuses next season when they likely also miss the playoffs. It always goes back to the one guy at the top, who really makes the decisions, but is completely unqualified to do so.
